His parents come there now, and you can bet they want to see him as he is today in France! They want to see everything that he does.

Give them — Every Detail of the Many-Sided World-War Shown in Authentic Records Filmed on the Spot A Comprehensive Record From the First Cause Down to Our Doughboys' First Victory THIS gigantic picture will show them how their boy lives, how he fights, how he is taken care of. They'll want to see him or his comrades on a hike, with a heavy pack on his back, a dangerous glint in his eye, and a smile on his lips. They'll want to see a trench or rest camp; the laying down of a barrage. They'll want to see him at play, and in a fight; the kind of country he's fighting in. They'll want to see him when the field kitchen comes up. This Is a War of Machinery They'll want to see these boys handling the death-dealing machinery of war; the many engines of destruction— the big guns, the trench mortars, the deadly little automatic rifles and machine guns; the gas masks, the gas shells and a gas attack. They'll want to see how his sailor brothers protect him with battleships, destroyers, depth bombs, mines, sub-chasers and patrol boats. These are a few of the fascinating incidents which, with actual records of the big, imposing and important events of the world's war, make up seven sensational reels of the first and only pictorial history of the gigantic conflict — "Crashing Through to Berlin."
